Petr, does the top (rear) deck fit, up the other way, with all the bolt holes lining up? Is it original?
My AOP has a deck that is higher than a MkI Universal, and so has no need for the mesh guards over the exhaust pipes.
The two square holes in the rear hull plate have a duct around them that turns the hot air through 90 degrees and goes up through the rear deck like a chimney.
This duct is sealed against the rear hull plate and against the underside of the rear deck. It would allow the carrier to wade deeper than the earlier U.C.
I have built mine wrong as it is only in the last few years that I have learned this.
If you have Nigels books (Very good books!) you will be able to check out the rear of the AOPMkIIIW
Do you have the data plate for her? If so what is the T number?
